During the summer’s barbecues, we all know and enjoy kebabs. Everything that you can enjoy to eat can be put on a skewer; from tomatoes, bell peppers to chicken, shrimps and tofu. Did you know that we can also serve them as a dessert? At JIMINI’S, we’re not missing any opportunity to serve them in their sweet versions. For sweetness and freshness, we vary between juicy fruits and crispy grasshoppers everything coated in chocolate and sprinkled with almonds and coconut.
